Vandy The Pink has collaborated with Clarks Originals on a bejeweled moccasin shoe called the Wallabee Mules in two new colorways. Both entities have collaborated before on the Skeleton Wallabees, which this new shoe derives from the success of that.
The upcoming Wallabee Mules are a different take on Clark Originals' Wallabee Cup Lo moccasin shoe model. The Wallabee Mules design features jewel attachments made of steel arranged meticulously to display like a star on the toe box. It contains premium suede uppers with two different colorways: dark teal or faded yellow with a two-eye lace-up system and a chopped heel section. Additionally, the shoe has the Wallabee shoe model's signature natural rubber crepe soles with visible gold foil branding placed on the insoles. The moccasin shoes are unavailable for purchase as of now.
